Creatively Amused

As I finished up this purse I was thinking, it's been so long since I actually constructed anything, you know just cut and sew, that wonderful freedom of designing as you go along. It wasn't until I photographed the thing that I realized one side is longer than the other. I'm telling myself it adds character. Ya think?

As a person who adores vintage lace and tatting I was thrilled with Paula's Kit Club this month. The theme was sewing, and Paula went all out by including gorgeous vintage pieces, everything inside the box on the right, (including the exquisite lace on the lid and the buttons) are from this months kit, that just leaves the flowers that aren't - whew - that was long winded ~ lol So - these boxes are just cigar boxes with fabric glued on using Sobo - They are fun to make and fun to stash ribbons and embroidery supplies in.

Otto Rank was a contemporary of Sigmund F. - I love this quote. It makes so much sense, don't you think?
